Dear Oguz,
You can't get the density / volume information in the md.out file. As
the volume is fixed, you will have to calculate it yourself from the box
dimensions in the coordinate file. Alternatively, do one step of
constant pressure dynamics and then the output file from this will have
the volume and density.
The density (and volume) in a normal constant volume run will not vary,
by definition, so you don't need to calculate it constantly.
